Chapter 8 - Slipping Through One's Fingers
Renji shook Ishida, expecting him to yell and fight back but nothing happened. He was starting to get worried, thinking that perhaps he had injured him when he forced him to stop the car. With his other hand he grabbed his chin and looked into the Quincy's face. The boy was ghostly pale, like all the blood had been drained from his body and he almost looked like a corpse. He didn't look injured though, just scared to death. He was beginning to feel sorry for acting the way he did, perhaps he was more intimidating than he thought.
"Look, I'm not gonna kill you, I just wanna know where Ichigo is," said Renji as calmly as he could even though he still wanted to punish the Quincy in some way or another. "Kurosaki... Kurosaki... KUROSAKI!" murmured Uryu in the beginning and finished yelling his friend's name. He was shaking uncontrollably. "LET ME GO!" he screamed again and this time he began struggling trying to escape the grip of the one who was holding him captive. "I have to save Kurosaki! I SAID LET ME GO!" Renji became annoyed once more as the Quincy was acting as though he wasn't in his right mind. "You are powerless, how do you expect to save him?" snarled a now furious Shinigami. Uryu stopped moving and fell limply in Renji's arms. It was true, he was powerless, no matter how much he wanted to save Ichigo he couldn't. He knew Ichigo was in danger again, he just knew it, it was the same as the night he was... no, he didn't even want think about it. Uryu was sure Grimmjow was with Ichigo at that very moment doing horrible things to his friend. He had to stop Grimmjow, but how? He was indeed useless like Renji said, but unlike him, Renji was strong, and more than that, he had the means to get help. There was no time to lose, he had to pull himself together and act. He looked into Renji's eyes, trying to make him understand how serious he was and that he was done playing games. "Abarai, go to Soul Society now and bring back with you a strong Captain who could stand up against an Espada. You must also get Captain Unohana. I'm going ahead, you meet me at hotel Yume in Kieboru. Time is of the essence, Kurosaki's life is at stake here," said Uryu in a grave tone. "Like hell I'll listen to you ever again after what you just did to me!" snapped Renji. "This is not the time to be stupid Abarai! I've never been more serious in my life, do as I say or Kurosaki will surely die. The more you delay your departure the more the Kurosaki we all know and care about is going to be lost." This time Renji knew something was definitely wrong and that he should do what Ishida asked him to do. There was no way the brat was such a good actor. He quickly opened a gate to Soul Society and rushed inside, running as fast as he could while trying to figure out which Captain to bring back with him. Uryu quickly got into the car and drove back. He couldn't get past the hole in the ground but he could definitely drive to another street and leave from there. He was glad Kon wasn't asking him questions as he was not in the mood to answer any of them. He was worried, furious, but more than anything else he was worried to death about what the Hollow was doing to Ichigo at that very moment. He pushed the car to its limit, driving at maximum speed, not caring about anything else besides getting there as fast as possible. His safety did not matter, the horrible knowledge that Ichigo was alone with a very sick and twisted Hollow was the only thing occupying his mind. No matter how fast he drove it still took him a while to get back to the hotel and once he got there he rushed inside as soon as the car stopped. He didn't even have the patience to wait for the elevator, he simply ran up the stairs and didn't stop running until he was in front of the door. Then he stopped, trying to catch his breath. His heart was beating wildly in his chest, he was absolutely terrified of opening the door, because no matter what awaited him behind it he knew it couldn't be anything good. His hands were shaking again, he noticed when he raised one to press the door knob. He slowly turned it and the door opened with a creak. It was quite dark inside but he could still clearly see Grimmjow, on the bed, with Ichigo in his arms. His back was turned towards the door but Uryu knew it was him. There was no way two Espadas with blue hair with an obsession towards Ichigo existed. Ichigo wasn't moving, and the little bit he could see of his friend was covered in blood. The silence of the room was disturbed only by his own heartbeat and the sound of something dripping which Uryu assumed was Ichigo's blood. Then he lost it. One moment he was at the door staring at Grimmjow's back and the next moment he found himself against a wall getting his neck squeezed so hard he couldn't even breath anymore, but to him none of it mattered as he wasn't thinking straight anymore. He wasn't even trying to get Grimmjow's fingers away from his neck, because all he could think of was to brutally end the Hollow's life. His hands were around Grimmjow's neck, trying to hurt him, but the Espada didn't even seem fazed by the action. He only appeared to be annoyed and he was looking at him like he was nothing more than an insect about to get squashed. What Uryu didn't remember was how he grabbed the chair and smashed it into Grimmjow's arm who until then didn't even notice his presence, being too focused on staring at Ichigo. Once he did notice though it was too late and all he could do was raise his arm to not get hit in the head. Grimmjow immediately knew who the guy was, the Shinigami's so called friend who dared to touch him more than he should have. Before the kid managed to make another step towards him and punch him in the face, he got up, threw Ichigo on the bed and launched himself at the guy who attacked him. It was a pity the kid's face was all swollen and bruised because he was curious to see how the Shinigami's friend looked like. "You're a savage little thing, ain't ya?" said Grimmjow switching from being annoyed to being amused, but then he became serious again. "How dare you attack me, useless human?! Fucking pathetic weakling, you're so weak I didn't even notice your presence. You're nothing more than a bug to me, and you thought you could hurt me?" Uryu was starting to come out of his insanity as he was desperately trying to breath. His hands moved from Grimmjow's neck to his arm, trying to pull it away from him but it was pointless, he couldn't even budge him an inch. For the first time since it all started he was finally able to comprehend how Ichigo was so easily overpowered by this man, no... this Hollow. He didn't have a really good view of the bed since Grimmjow was blocking it, but he could still see a bit of Ichigo's orange hair. Then something he didn't expect happened. In a matter of seconds Kon had Ichigo in his arms and was jumping out the window. Uryu's eyes bulged, he had totally forgotten about Kon. The iron grip the Espada had on his neck weakened significantly, him being probably as surprised as Uryu by what they both saw. The Espada let him go and turned around. "I'm not done with you yet," said Grimmjow and sonido-ed from the room. Catching up to the two fugitives was easy. Although the Shinigami look-alike was fast and certainly not human he was still no match for his speed. Just as the one carrying the Shinigami jumped into the air from a fence trying to reach a higher building, Grimmjow appeared next to him and with a powerful kick to the back he sent both him and the Shinigami crashing into the building's wall. Kon tried to protect Ichigo as much as he could when hitting the wall but he mostly failed. He got up wanting to see how Ichigo was doing or if he was still alive but the Arrancar didn't waste any time and grabbed him by the arm. Kon turned around and looked at the Arrancar's face. He used to think the giant Arrancar who was previously after him when he was in Ichigo's body was scary, but no, that one was nothing compared to this one with blue hair who looked so much like a human. He felt his blood freeze at the mere sight of the smirk on the Arrancar's face and he shuddered. He wasn't exactly sure what was happening but he knew he had to get away from this Arrancar in order to save Ichigo's life. His thoughts were interrupted by the Arrancar who held his arm so tightly it almost felt like it was going to break at any given moment. "What are you?" asked Grimmjow going straight to the subject. Kon wasn't sure if it was a good idea to answer, but could he really refuse to do so and live? "I'll tell you if you stop squeezing my arm so tightly, I don't want it to break... Ahhh!" yelled Kon when the Arrancar only squeezed tighter. "Ahh stop, STOP! You're gonna break it and then Ichigo's gonna kill me! Dammit stop it, I'm a Mod Soul!" By the time he finished answering Kon had tears in his eyes. The pressure on his arm was causing him too much pain and he could hardly stand on his own two feet anymore. What was worse was that the Arrancar didn't seem satisfied with the answer he gave since the pressure didn't go down at all. "STOP IT! I'm a Modified Soul which Ichigo places in his body when he goes off fighting you bastards!" screamed Kon. "So this is the Shinigami's human body..." said Grimmjow, his smirk growing even wider. With a quick move his hold switched from the Mod Soul's arm to his wrist and forced the being inside on his knees. "This is interesting" mused Grimmjow and crouched to have a better look at the body in front of him. With his other hand he grabbed the Mod Soul's jaw intent on studying his face. There was no difference between the Shinigami's spiritual form and his human body except for the bruises, cuts and so on which Grimmjow proudly inflicted on his body. It was as though he had an identical new toy to replace the old broken one. How lucky could one Arrancar get? This Mod Soul could wait though, there was going to be enough time to study him after killing the annoying human who appeared to be rushing towards him that very moment. But first... "I can't let you run away," said Grimmjow, got up and pressed on the Mod Soul's knee with his foot until he heard the bone break. "AHHH! BASTARD! YOU BROKE IT! YOU FUCKING BROKE IT!" screamed Kon in pain. Uryu was further horrified by the scene he had just witness. This Grimmjow was terrifying with his extreme brutality. He almost stopped in his tracks when he turned around to face him but he didn't. It was better to have the Hollow's attention on himself instead of the other two. He had to buy time until Renji got back from Soul Society, so he thought of something to buy that much needed time. He knew Grimmjow expected him to attack but instead he stopped just in front of him. He looked into his eyes, trying to not show any fear. Ichigo's life depended on him, and so did Kon's, who kept screaming in agony and cursing the Espada. "Oh? So you're not gonna attack now?" inquired Grimmjow. "There is nothing more that I wish at this moment than to brutally end your pathetic and hollow existence but unfortunately I do not have my powers any longer. If I had them then you wouldn't be so lucky as to get reincarnated once I killed you. A Hollow killed by a Quincy gets his existence erased... forever..." "I'm not a fucking Hollow you fucking weakling! Quincy? What the fuck is that? Wait, scratch that, I don't give a fuck what a Quincy is. What I'm more interested is knowing how dare you touch something that belongs to me? Ehhh???" "What...?" asked a very confused Uryu. "The Shinigami! He's my fuck toy, I don't care if you comforted him or whatever the fuck you humans do, I simply don't like people touching my stuff." "Fuck... toy...?" murmured Kon and stopped his whimpering, too shocked at what he'd heard. There was no way the Arrancar said... fuck toy... was there? His head snapped towards Ichigo and for the first time he noticed the true state he was in… there was way too much blood running down his thighs. Suddenly the injury his leg suffered seemed like nothing, he couldn't even think about it anymore. In his heart he felt that complaining about such... nothing would be an insult to Ichigo's suffering. He turned his head back to Ishida and the Arrancar, both of them staring at him. It appeared as though Ishida was feeling exactly like him since he looked so miserable and the Arrancar suddenly appeared to be a whole lot scarier than he was a few moments before. He slowly began crawling away from the two and towards Ichigo, wanting to see how he was doing. Grimmjow let the Mod Soul go to the Shinigami. He didn't care what he did as long as he couldn't run away. Back to the matter at hand, the Quincy, human, whatever the hell he liked to call himself, was going to give him answers whether he wanted to or not. "Are you slow or something? What's so hard to understand? I asked how dare you touch my fuck toy?" said Grimmjow again and grabbed the human before him by the hair. "Why would I answer any of your questions, Hollow?" said Uryu in a mocking tone. Grimmjow didn't miss the demeaning tone in which the human used the name Hollow. He tightened the grip he had on his hair and punched him with his other hand. He didn't hit him hard, as it wasn't time to kill him yet but it was still enough to get a pained whimper out of him and to cause him a nosebleed. Uryu mentally cursed, buying time was a lot harder when he couldn't even stand being in the presence of the Hollow without wanting to physically hurt him or if that wasn't possible to at least hurt his stupid pride. Grimmjow felt insulted when he was called a Hollow? When it came down to it he was nothing more than a disgusting Hollow. "I see you're not going to answer my question, so I'll give you some time to find an answer to it. In the meantime I'm gonna ask you another question. Earlier you said that if you had your silly powers then you'd kill me. Do you honestly believe you could ever win against me?" asked a very annoyed Grimmjow. Uryu mentally slapped himself for his monumental stupidity. He did the same mistake as Ichigo... he said he could win against this Hollow. He didn't even dare speak. "Answer me!" demanded Grimmjow. Uryu was beginning to panic. Wasn't he supposed to be smart? If so then how could he be so stupid? Saying something like that to the Hollow was like asking for a death sentence... or asking to be raped. At least the Hollow didn't seem interested in him that way and for that he was grateful. One way or another, he had to answer, but say what? Fortunately he didn't have to worry about it anymore once he saw Zabimaru quickly heading towards Grimmjow who also seemed to notice because the next second Uryu found himself free from the Hollow's grip. He quickly ran towards Ichigo, hoping to not find him dead. Once he was there he dropped to his knees and put his ear on Ichigo's chest wanting to know if his heart was still beating... it was, too slow but at least it was still beating. "Please move away from the patient so I can treat him", said a feminine voice which Uryu identified as belonging to Captain Unohana. "Move it Abarai, unless you want me to cut him through you," said someone else, that someone else being none other than Zaraki Kenpachi. "Are you not feeling well Ishida-san?" asked Captain Unohana. "Don’t worry about it Unohana-san, I'm fine, just very tired. How's Kurosaki?" asked Uryu after he slowly walked to the wall and leaned against it. The woman didn't answer though, only the sound of the battle between Grimmjow and Kenpachi could be heard. Renji appeared next to him with a worried expression on his face. He took in the scene before him. Captain Unohana appeared to be angry, which was something new and scary. Next to her was Kon who was crying and close to them was Uryu leaning on a wall and looking deplorable. He knew better than to bother Captain Unohana so he crouched next to Uryu and whispered in his ear. "What the hell is going on here? What happened to Ichigo? And who is that Arrancar?" There was no point in hiding it anymore, so he answered. "That Arrancar raped Kurosaki. Twice." Renji put his hand on the wall, trying to keep his balance. He turned his eyes towards Ichigo again, noticing the horrible state in which he was in. He had to ask again. There was nothing more he wished at that moment than Uryu saying he heard him wrong. "Did I hear you right? Did you say he raped Ichigo?" "Yes." He slowly got up, moved away and called his Bankai. Then he rushed into battle, not even caring about the possibility of being cut by Captain Zaraki's sword. Every attack of the Vice Captain was filled with hate and the sole intent of ending life. Even Kenpachi stopped his attack when he felt so much bloodlust coming from the redhead. Under normal circumstances he would've been annoyed at someone else interfering with his battle but at that moment he was too puzzled by Renji's reaction. Instead of being angry he was curious. "Oi, Abarai, what do you think you're doing?" The Vice Captain didn't appear to hear him though and just as he was about to get cut by the Arrancar's sword Kenpachi rushed at their common enemy and kicked him away from Renji. "I hate to ask the same question twice but what do you think you're doing?" asked Kenpachi again and looked into Renji's hate filled eyes.He had to look away though because immediately Grimmjow got up and attacked him.
"Abarai!" yelled Kenpachi at Renji again. This time Renji appeared to have snapped out of whatever state of madness he was in because he finally seemed to be answering the question. "Captain... he... he... Ichigo..." "I fucked him," interfered Grimmjow when he noticed the redhead tattooed bitch didn't even dare say it. "I fucked him so hard he ended up crying and begging like a little girl. That was two days ago, and earlier, before all of you came here and interrupted me from enjoying seeing his last moments I fucked him again. I'm glad none of you Shinigami losers healed him because it was much easier fucking him this time around since he was bleeding like a bitch," said Grimmjow and began laughing. Kenpachi was stunned, but he wasn't showing it. He didn't want to believe the Arrancar's words but judging from Renji's face and his earlier reaction he knew it was true. It saddened him. He was already starting to worry about how he was supposed to act around Ichigo next time they met. Cause of the idiot before him never again could he truly enjoy his fights with him. The anger he felt at that moment towards the man who ruined all the fights that could've been was so high that even Renji felt the need to get up and hurry the hell away from there with as much speed as possible. "Now how am I ever going to enjoy my fights with Ichigo? I'm gonna have you make it up for all of them!" said Kenpachi and attacked. Grimmjow tried to parry the Shinigami's sword but it was so heavy he ended up being pushed downwards from the sheer strength behind it. He couldn't hold it for too long, so when his defense faltered for a fraction of a second he found himself being slashed across the chest by the other's weapon. The Shinigami didn't appear to have had enough as he raised his zanpakuto and was ready to strike again. Grimmjow wasn't going to allow himself to get killed so easily so he fired a Cero to stop the Shinigami from injuring him further. He got back up on his feet, ready to release his zanpakuto and quickly end the fight, sick of seeing all the Shinigamis whining, bitching and acting all high and mighty. "That's enough Grimmjow" said Ulquiorra who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere. Before anyone even had the chance to be surprised he snatched Ichigo from under their noses and sonido-ed towards Grimmjow. By the time Ulquiorra got next to Grimmjow the light of Negación descended from the sky and Kenpachi was forced to stop before running straight into it. Ishida was too shocked to even move after seeing Ichigo getting taken away like that from under their noses. He forced himself to get up and move on shaky legs, knowing there was nothing he could do to stop them from taking Ichigo away but at the same time not being able to stop his body from moving towards the light. After everything he did to keep him alive it felt like Ichigo was slipping though his fingers. He felt weak, drained of any ounce of energy he ever had and just as he was about to scream at Grimmjow an oath to kill him everything around him started to move and the last thing he remembered besides him losing any control he had over his body and collapsing to the ground was Renji's voice yelling profanities at Grimmjow.TBC
